Beautiful story with a main character who grows immensely, discovering so many things about herself. Being someone with a similar upbringing and character, this novel was painful to read at times but also showed me that we are not alone in the darkness, no matter what the shadows might try to say.

Pretty hard topics addressed in this book and I think they were all touched on well.
